Thanks to a moderate 63,5 degree head tube angle, the handling is pleasantly balanced. For all of those who love a good incline, the moderate seating position of the on extremely technical trails should be considered pleasant. All in all, in the on moderate runs category, you will hardly find a better overall package from parts and geometry.
